Creating your little sanctuary

Hello there, I got diagnosed in March. Something positive that's helped me (& may help you) is to to create a small calm space in my garden. I have a deck and have got a lot of pleasure buying & choosing some new pots, cool plants, candle holders and a lounge chair. It's given me a project and beautiful relaxing space. It doesn't matter how small your space is, even a beautiful window box can lift your spirits.

I know going through treatment can a expensive time. To save funds ask greenfingered friends for advice (packets of seeds & bulbs are cheep). Local gardening groups are friendly & can offer advice/cheeper plants too. Or ask friends for a plants instead of cut flowers. I've set my heart on a gorgeous bird table so am currently ebaying old stuff from the garage to rise the funds.

Or create a little sanctuary for yourself at home. A comfortable chair, cozy throw & lovely scented candle nearby. Get creative.
